This is quite exciting even more so as it's returning, albeit for a one off, with the original host.

I actually think brining back some of these old hosts, instead of likes of Mulhern and Willoughby would insure larger ratings. Everyone over 25 grew up with the likes of Cilla so surely the audience advertisers need would embrace them at least as much as they do for Holly Willoughby and Mulhern.

I did prefer this than ITV's current offering "Take Me Out" I wonder if they will use the old version of the modified version on the last series?

I can't see ITV letting it go if it smashes the ratings...

I'm sure they'll use the classic format, I think the format changes are what made Cilla jump ship.

Cilla Black was on The One Show not too long ago, she seems quite senile now although I am not a doctor.

Out of interest when did he start doing over the top voice-overs like that? Watching an early price is right with Bruce Forsyth on challenge the other day he did his voice overs like any other voice-over person would.

When Patrick Allen died?
